Our MIL service.

Cherry Creek, in this county. is dis
tant about 10 miles from Taylor and
90 from the county seat. The section
of country tributary tn Cherry is one
third of the whole county. And yet
these people are cut off from mail
communication with the county seat
and Taylor To such an extent that we
can communicate with San Francisco
quicker than we can with Cherry.
Now that Congress Is In session, our
people should go TO work and petition
our Representatives To urge upon the
Pnslotlice Department the justice of
giving us something like fair deal
IN the postal service. Why should
one-third II tie people of this county,
whose interests aad social relations
are closely allied 10 the rest Of their
fellow citizens, be cut off from mail
communication torso long period as
two weeks Al n time II is neither
Just nor right, and we believe there is
not another such injustice perpetraied
on ike number OF people In the
United States. Let us present our
grievance and ask for relief in opening
mp mail route between Cherry Creek
and Ely. Strong petitions, signed by
all our people, setting forth the urgent
necessity of such service, could hardly
fail To be heard and answered.

OSCEOLA PLACERS.
An Immense Placer DepOsit--A Careful
Report From an Expert.

Report From an Expert.
A condensed report on the Osceola
gold placer, based upon the most care
full and elaborate tests of the property
by George w. MAYNARD, saws the Vir-
ginia Enterprise, shows that the prop
erty Is situated in White Pine county,
Eastern Nevada, ON the western flank
Of Mount Wheeler. It is SO miles
from Frisco, the present terminus of
the Utah Central Railway. The pro-
jected railway to Los Angeles, Cal,
will come within five miles of the
property, which consists of 712 acres
of gold-bearing gravel in one body,
held by indisputable titles; exclusive
water right to SIX streams favorably
situated for supplying water to wash
the gravel, a ditch 16 miles long and
a distributing reservoir for utilizing
the water of said streams; 1853 acres of
placer ground (aurlferous grayeD on
the line of the ditch, five miles from
the present workings; 1850 acres of
desert land below the great placer for
depositing tailings. A Frazer & Chal-
mers 20 stamp mill of the best modern
construction, which will be made
available when the quartz veins above
0sceola come to be worked; two
ranches, covering 100 acres, of improY-
ed farming land for furnishing sup
plies. The ground in the great placer
known To contain collaborating gravel
is three miles long, of which y miles
are 3 900 feet wide. and the remaining
upper haif 1000 feet. The develop
ments have proven the depth of the
gravel To range from 45 feet in the
channe. in the upper part OF the
gulch IL 265 feet haif mile
below tie present workings, with
every evidence Of Increasing depth as
the valley is approached. The aver
age depth of gravel below the present
workings may with confidence be es-
timated at $50 feet, which means 49,
100000 cubic yards. At Is cents
cubic yard the gross value. therefore,
amounts to $17,000.000. Up to Au-
gust 81, 1886, 125,s92 cubic yards had
been hydfauicked at one point known
as the Big Gut" yielding s29,715,
equal to 26.6 cents per cubic yard,
with an average of but 356 miners
inches of water for six to eight hours
a day. With water for 100 hours this
season over 600 ounces of gold, valued
at $1,000, have been cleaned up from
the sluice and the bedrock.

Ely, December 81. 1887.


Ely, December 81. 1887.
Our gold mine isIeported to be look
ing fine. Quite large body of high
grade ore was recently found, which
continues TO improve rs work pro-
crossing. There is no doubt but some
large shipments of bullion will be
made when the mill starts up again.
William Horton, an old esteemed
resident OF Duck Creek, has moved to
lower White River in Nye county,
where he has bought ranch and will
permanently reside. White Pine
county loses good citizen by his de-
parture.
A. c. House, late Of Taylor, will
soon enlarge his butcher shop, as he
finds it too small for tire needs of the
growing town Of Ely.
While there is so much sickness in
the surrounding country, the health
Of all the Elyites remains good The
only disease prevalent is consumption
of grub. 1t is only feared by the
restaurants.
Mr.. Mike Cohen Of Ely was married
to Mrs Philippine Morris of Eureka
at the residence of Justice Munro last
Sunday evening. Only small num-
Der of invited friends witnessed the
ceremony. The bride looked lovely,
and Mike, who was attired in the reg
ulation evening costume, wore as an
additional ornament, No. 10 smile,
which plainly indicated how much
satisfied he felt in thus disproving the
the falsity of the predictions recently
made by the "bovs,n To the effect that
Mike would "get left" After the short
and simple ceremony now used by
Judge Munro was concluded, the re-
freshments provided by the happy
groom were brought in, and jolly
good time was had by all present un-
Ill midnight when the guests departed,
all voting the affair the most pleasant
social events ever seen at the county
seat.

Hon. Thomas Rockhill came in from
Ely on Wednesdays stage to attend
to bis mining interests here. The ex-
Senator was accompanied by young
man-Cbarey Bliss-who was attack
ed at the Six-mile House with acute
pneumonia, which has since developed
into typhoid fever. He has been in
the county hospital since in a very
precarious condition. His brother
came in from Duck Creek to attend
him, and now there are hopes of his
recovery.
William Hayes is quite busy in tear
ing down and sending away buildings
from here to the county seat, and
keeping in order skating rink for
the amusement of the young folks
here.
The Old school-house of Eberhardt,
n relic of the former prosperous times,
which was falling in, is being taken

off. Measurements are of no good to
anyone.
